    Aigote (i-go-te) are kote (籠手, armored sleeves) which are connected and worn like a jacket.  This makes for a more comfortable and form fitting kote that doesn’t need to be tied to the do (cuirass). This helps to prevent the kote from sagging if worn without a do to help support them.  The material that connects the 2 sleeves together are fitted with grommets and cotton cord, just like the inside of the kote, so it can be adjusted for different fitting.  This is great for clients who want to be able to adjust the fitting of their kote as they like or if several people will be training in the kote.  Although not traditional, we suggest replacing the cotton cord with a nylon cord, so the kote’s back will stretch and contract as needed.
